TEDxKyoto 2023 – Together –

We are pleased to announce the next TEDxKyoto 2023 event – “Together”.
TEDxKyoto 2023 will be held on 12th March 2023 (Sun) at the Kyoto International Conference Center.

Over the past several years, during the pandemic, communities have been torn apart and fragmented. Progress stalled and came to a standstill in certain areas, yet it also continued to move forward through the upheaval and changes affecting our daily lives.

At the same time society has been transformed. Methods of communication have changed dramatically. Online communication has taken root and become the norm. Yet, something seems to be missing.

TEDxKyoto is celebrating its 10th anniversary and its first event in 4 years with the theme, “Together”. Being together. Playing together. Coming together in community for a shared experience can propel society forward. For TEDxKyoto, that driving force that moves us forward is our curiosity and the power of ideas.

Come and join TEDxKyoto on March 12th, 2023, for a new journey together as we listen, discuss, experience, think, act, and move forward.
